My mother said to me, and my brother that we’re an investment.
She talked about how she invested so much money, and time in us, and she expects us to pay her back, spend our money with her, and give her an easy life.
I don’t mind helping her, she’s my mom after all, but this is seriously messed up, please don’t have kids for that reason.
The thing is, my brother and I barely make enough to survive and our mother don’t even bother to save up any money she said that we will give her money when she has none.
So my brother and I showed her our bank account. We had less than $10,000 in combine savings. (We are still young).
She expects a profit from raising us and that is just wrong on so many levels.
Here are what netizens think:
- My mother, when she was dying, said she realizes she favored the wrong child. The golden child left her to die like a dog. That would make my sibling a terrible investment.
- She does know that not all investments pay off, right? Sometimes people will lose money. That’s just how life is.
- And children are an investment with a risk level of retirement fund in dogecoin.
- Same here. I’m the one who took care of my mom when she was dying of cancer. My older sister couldn’t even be bothered to attend her funeral.
- Yeah sometimes people build a house and it gets set on fire. Nothing is a guarantee.
